Insect Repellent

Insect Repellent Sprays & Plug-In Mosquito Repellents:

Smartfox’s insect repellent collection covers personal protection for outdoor use alongside plug-in repellents for mosquitoes and flies indoors. The range includes OFF!, Aerogard, MAC Buzz Off, Goodbye Sandfly and Mortein, with tropical-strength sprays, odourless formulas, plant-based options and professional-strength insect repellents represented.

Insect Repellent Sprays for Outdoor Protection:

Personal insect repellents make up most of the collection, with pump sprays and aerosol formats in sizes from 50ml to 250ml. These products are designed to repel biting insects such as mosquitoes, sandflies, flies and ticks, although the insects targeted and duration of protection vary between formulations.

OFF! Tropical Strength is available as both a 175ml pump and 150g spray. The pump formulation uses picaridin rather than DEET and provides protection against mosquitoes, flies, sandflies and ticks for up to eight hours.

Aerogard options include Tropical Strength and Odourless 135ml pump sprays plus a 175ml Natural formula. The Natural repellent uses a plant-based active ingredient and provides up to six hours of protection against mosquitoes, flies and sandflies. The Odourless version offers a non-greasy, low-irritant alternative with up to four hours of protection.

DEET & Professional Strength Repellents:

For shoppers specifically seeking DEET insect repellent, the collection includes MAC Buzz Off. The 150ml Tropical Strength formula contains 20% DEET and provides up to six hours of protection, while the 250ml Professional Strength version contains 35% DEET and is designed for higher insect activity, with protection for up to ten hours.

A compact 50ml Goodbye Sandfly spray provides another option for targeting biting insects.

Indoor Plug-In Insect Repellents:

Mortein Peaceful Nights plug-in products provide a different approach for indoor mosquito and fly protection. The collection includes a primary plug-in unit and a 45ml refill. These use a quick-acting, odourless formula with adjustable control.

Choosing an Insect Repellent:

Consider where you will use the repellent, the insects you need protection from and your preferred formulation. Compare tropical or professional strength for demanding outdoor conditions, picaridin or plant-based alternatives where preferred, odourless options for reduced fragrance, and plug-in repellents when ongoing indoor mosquito and fly protection is the priority.
